The Main Event

Round up the gang for a Family Mystery Picnic, part treasure hunt, part foodie adventure! Armed with clever clues and riddles, you’ll uncover hidden gems like cosy bakeries, tasty delis and local foodie favourites, picking up delicious treats as you go. Every solved clue gets you closer to your next snack stop and, finally, a picture-perfect picnic spot to tuck into your feast.

You can choose your adventure in some brilliant locations, from the charm of Bath and the historic streets of Ludlow in Shropshire, to the buzz of Liverpool, Leeds and even Belfast.

It’s a great day out for families with kids aged 3–12 (under-threes go free). If your little ones are over 12, just book them in as adults so there’s plenty of food to go round.

Important Bits

Important to Note

Please note, you'll need a mobile phone with internet access the day of your experience.

You’ll get your clues via email by 5pm the evening before your picnic.

A picnic spot will have been planned for you; be that a picnic area, a park or even a winery. Please note that picnic set up is not included so you are welcome to find a spot and settle in to eat. 

What do I need to bring?
A fully charged phone, pen and paper, bottle of water, cooler bag/carry bag with an ice pack, own knife, plates, cups, and a picnic blanket.

Weather
Mystery Picnics can happen rain, hail or shine. If you'd prefer to reschedule your picnic due to rain you'll need to give 3 business days notice, so we encourage you to keep an eye on the forecast.
